We will remind that in 2024, 6.1 million hryvnias were allocated from the regional budget of the Mykolaiv Oblast to improve the public notification system.

According to Olena Horbachova, the deputy head of the civil protection department, the notification system in the Mykolaiv region was built in the 80s of the last century and was based on analog equipment. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, this system began to be improved, in particular, to switch from analog to digital signal transmission channels.

In addition, 96% of communities in the Mykolaiv region do not have a public notification system — sirens are installed only in two communities of the region — Mykolaiv and Yuzhnoukrainsk. Another 17 communities of the Mykolaiv region have already submitted projects for the arrangement of local warning systems for the approval of specialists of the regional civil protection department.

Also, 1 million 600 thousand hryvnias were allocated from the regional budget this year for the maintenance of the notification system.
